Was Charmed actually a feminist show?

The Mary Sue

Holly Marie Combs took issue with the "feminist" emphasis on  The CW's planned reboot of Charmed. “Guess we forgot to do that the first go around. Hmph,” she tweeted. But according to Princess Weekes, “Charmed is a mixed bag if we want to view it through a feminist lens.” She adds that although Charmed was a “girl power” show, its insight into gender is so shallow it barely goes below the surface” and it was hardly feminist in its choice of skimpy outfits.

• Shannen Doherty tweeted her reaction to the proposed “feminist” reboot: “Their wording is terrible and a bit offensive. But, everyone makes mistakes. Perhaps with the backlash they will be more thoughtful in future….Very ignorant stupid comment. Perhaps made by a millennial that never watched the show and just read a synopsis on it.”
